A/N: I'm so sorry, that this took so long to push out but here's another chapter! Thank you very much for waiting! I was trying to finish the new cover for my book and it took me DAYS to finish! Thanks, again! :D

"Come, Saito. After that fight and losing sight of your friend, I think it'd be best to rest for the remainder of the day. It's nearing night, so let's go to Hosu City, there's something there I wish to show you," his calm, collected voice resonated as he made his way into his vehicle.


Despite how much he wished to track down that snake and save her friend, he knew he couldn't; it'd only risk Uviel's safety. "You too-- You tried to help fight Serpentine. I would've been informed by the hero network if new heroes gained their license to fight. However, I've not heard of you, yet you still tried to help fight," As Edgeshot strolled past the large beastly Crock, his gray eyes bore into yellow ones that lit up with slight shock. "You deserve at least a reward, for your efforts. Come along with us-" he wasn't expecting Wani's words to cut him off all of a sudden and halt in his steps; it sounded a bit harsh and distant.


"No! No, you two go on. I don't want to get more involved with you wacky heroes," Rude, he was, the muscular Crock moved his heel to turn and leave, but Uviel's suddenly spoken words caught him by surprise.


"Your wounds. Dude, um-- You're bleeding..." Even though the small girl had gone through something horrible just moments ago, she couldn't help but point out the fact that he was gushing blood on his shoulder. "At least let us patch you up, or something, as thanks for helping out," Pain engulfed her eyes as depression filled her heart from the event just a few minutes ago.


"Don't worry about it! I just came around to try and save Yukimura and beat her dad's ass. So piss off..." Even though fury laced his grumbled, loud reply, his eyes blinked a little at the idea of being treated by a hero. Why should I let some hero patch up my shoulder?! What, they don't think I'm strong enough to keep going with it untreated?! Hah, they have no idea how much damage I can handle. I didn't even notice I was stabbed there, all I knew was that Serpentine got a hit on me and my quirk mirrored it. Damn bastard, does he think he can get away with kidnapping her again?! From there, he continued to furiously ponder and imagine himself tearing the snake apart with his strong hands.


Uviel and Shinya were both completely ignored, as he left in a fit of anger with stomps of his heavy feet. They watched him pass Edgeshot's vehicle and make his way through the path that they followed to get to the secluded area.


~~~Wani~~~


It was a long trek. To say how long exactly, would be difficult, but Wani made it back to the city on his own and it was already nighttime now. Even though the moon stood high above the lights of the city, it could barely be seen.


Through the shadows of a gap between two buildings, came the Crock with both hands in the pockets of his vest. His long tail swished with every step and when some of the city lights repelled the shadows up to his neck only his head remained hidden.


A particular smell caught his attention and it didn't take long for him to notice flames brightening up a part of the city ahead of him. Faint screams met his ears, and so he chose to continue with caution. Damn, that teacher and Hitoshi have my cloak. How am I supposed to walk around other people now? angry, an eye twitched at the thought.
